A laundry appliance system includes a main server, a plurality of laundry appliances operatively connected with the main server, and a controller configured to perform an operation. The operation includes receiving a plurality of signals from the plurality of laundry appliances, the plurality of signals including a first remaining quantity of laundry additive within the first laundry appliance and a second remaining quantity of laundry additive within the second laundry appliance; determining a total amount of laundry additive required to fill each of the plurality of laundry appliances to a predetermined maximum fill level; and generating a notification in response to determining the total amount of laundry additive required to fill each of the plurality of laundry appliances, the notification including the total amount of required laundry additive.

A laundry treatment appliance includes a cabinet forming a receiving space therein; a tub provided within the receiving space; and a dispenser assembly provided within the receiving space, the dispenser assembly being in fluid communication with the tub. The dispenser assembly includes a drawer body insertable to and retractable from the cabinet and provided adjacent to the tub, the drawer body defining at least one receiving compartment; a removable cartridge selectively positioned within the at least one receiving compartment between an inserted position and a removed position; a dosing compartment provided in the drawer body, wherein the dosing compartment is in fluid communication with the removable cartridge when the removable cartridge is in the inserted position; and a sensor in operable communication with the dosing compartment, the sensor configured to sense a level of fluid within the dosing compartment.

A laundry appliance may include a cabinet, a tub, a laundry basket, a conditioning system, and a controller. The tub may be positioned within the cabinet. The laundry basket may define a laundry chamber for receipt of articles for washing or drying. The conditioning system may include a heat exchanger disposed within the cabinet in thermal communication with the laundry chamber to adjust a temperature therein. The controller may be configured to initiate a laundry operation. The laundry operation may include initiating a cooling action at the heat exchanger to reduce a temperature within the laundry chamber, directing ozone transmission into the laundry chamber following initiating the cooling action, initiating a heating action at the laundry chamber to increase the temperature within the laundry chamber following directing ozone transmission, and determining achievement of a set ozone depletion level within the laundry chamber following initiating the heating action.

A liquid storage box, an additive dispensing apparatus, and a method for identifying an additive type. The liquid storage box is provided with a closed chamber for storing additive. At least one marking conductive component is disposed on the liquid storage box. Any one element or a combination of elements selected from a group consisting of the quantity, position, shape, and resistance of the marking conductive components provided on the liquid storage box indicates correspondingly the type of additive. The identification conductive components are arranged in an accommodating portion of the additive dispensing apparatus. The identification conductive components cover the shadows of the marking conductive components disposed on different liquid storage boxes in the accommodation portion. The marking conductive component of the liquid storage box is spaced from the identification conductive component in the accommodating portion, so as to form capacitance correspondingly indicating the type of the additive.

A liquid storage box, an additive dispensing apparatus and an identification method including a guiding identifier part with a set guiding trajectory is arranged on the liquid storage box; and any one or a combination of the number, position and trajectory shape of the guiding identifier part correspondingly represents types of additives. The additive dispensing apparatus has an intelligent identification assembly, including a first second wiring terminal connected to a detection circuit; elastic pushing members, including conductive elements in contact and electrical connection between the first and the second wiring terminal under normal conditions; and a rotating swing member, which may swing along the set guiding trajectory of the guiding identifier part on the liquid storage box and push the elastic pushing members at corresponding positions to disconnect the conductive elements from a wiring terminal when the liquid storage box is inserted into an insertion groove, achieving signal identification.
